The Huron Expositor, 1963-09-12, Page 12�2-r,1 WRoN WQSrrou, s a ONTe SF.K. 1-963 0 1ST ...CE EDITOR . J Recalls Earlier Petition on Noise Seaforth, Ontario, Sept. 11, 1965. The Editor, Huron Expositor: Dear Sir: It is unfortunate that administrative difficulties 'hamper municipal councils in making prompt decisions. Of, ten; delays cause much unneed- ed expense and unwarranted waste of time. We all realize that to act on a town council is very time- consuming and a thankless job. Many areas of criticism could be avoided if time to time sug- gestions `were acted on. I am referring to the petition sign- ed by 22 ratepayers, published in' The Huron Expositor on July 13, 1961, which read as follows: "The petition sought, passage of a bylaw 'for the purpose of zoning the said town for light and heavy industry, as well as residential areas, and more par- ticularly prohibiting any Indus- try being operated in the old C.F.M. plant which does not or would not operate in a manner characteristic • of the atmos- phere of the Church, Nursing Home, Funeral Home and priv- ate residences located in the immediate vicinity of the afore- mentioned C.F.M, plant, bound- ed on the east by High Street, on the south by Market Street, and on the west by Jarvis St.' "The petition went on to urge that 'no building permit be is- sued for the alteration or addi- tion to the said C.F.M. plant for the housing of any indus- try whatsoever which would not so conform with the above men- tioned atmosphere'." No decision was made; the petition was referred to the Property Committe, and_ died. Now, two years later, we have the problem which could have been corrected, if not avoided, had a decision been made on the petition of 1961. No decision has been made in relocating Huron Canadian Fabricators. There seems to be doubt as to what are concrete facts:' On August 31, 1963, copies of the following document were given to the Chairman of the Industrial Committee, prior to a committee meeting, to' pass along to those who were in a position to make decisions for the town. This document read as follows: "Discussions have been held with Mr. Peter Huyben, the President. of Huron Canadian Fabricators Limited, relative to the possibility of the company moving to another location in the Town of Seaforth. Due to the nature of this business, which is presently manufactur- ing boilers, the use of an air hammer is required, and it has been ascertained that if the firm remains in its present loca- tion, which is a residential area, that the assessments of the var- ious properties 'in the vicinity are almost certain to he lower- ed because of the nuisance and noise caused by the heavy equipment. "Mr. Huyben has been con- tacted by interests in both Stratford and London, Ontario, respecting the possibility of his firm locating in their city. The feeling is that the Town of Sea - forth cannot afford to lose this expanding industry which would appear to have a very bright future and as a result all steps necessary to retain the firm in Seaforth should be taken. "Mr. Huyben has stated that he would sell the present plant to the town for $9,000.00, pro- vided that, he is permitted to remove the 550 -volt panel, the portable heating plant and equipment switches now in the building, in exchange for a site to be located south of the Cana- DuCharmes Hold Reunion The DuCharme reunion was held at Lions Park on Sunday. Those present included: Mrs. Deilea DuCharme, Zurich; Mr. and Mrs, Exeas Charrette, Elaine and Doris, Detroit; Mr. and Mrs. Byron DuCharme and family, London; Mr. and Mrs. Cyril DuCharme and family, London; Mr, and Mrs. Wilfrid DuCharme and family, Windsor; Mr. and Mrs. George DuCharme and family, Dublin; Mr. and Mrs. Auguste DuCharme, St. Columban; Mr. Thomas Du- Charme, London; Mr. Russel Du- Charme, Windsor; Mr. and Mrs. Sam Hammea and family, De- troit; Mr. and Mrs. Earl Den- omme and family, Detroit; Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Marcy and family, Stratford; Mr. and Mrs. Bill Chevey and family, Detroit; Mr. and Mrs, Gordon Staples and family, Dublin; Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert DiCharme and family, Zurich; Mr. Yves Ala - cote and Mrs. Yvonne Alaeote, Kitchener; Mr. and Mrs. Don- ald Charrette and son, Detroit; Mr. and Mrs. Robert Charrette and family, Detroit; Miss Elean- or DuCharme London; Mr.. and Mrs, Cullen Ritssell and family, Dublin; Mr. and Mrs. Richard DuChatme, Windeet;'' Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Deliilt, 'Detroit;; Mr. and Mrs. Victor Denomme and family, Detroit; Mrs antct Mrs. James.

On this property his company would erect a new plant at a cost of approximate- ly $15,500.00, and in order to facilitate this, certain interest- ed citizens • have., assured him that the balance of $6,500.00 re- quired to erect the building can be raised. "If this arrangement is ap- proved the company would va- cate the existing building on or before November 15, 1963, and would not use an air hammer during the intervening period. The company would leave suf- ficient material to allow the municipality to extend the pres- ent roof to the new wall which is presently being erected. "Insofar as the present build- ing is concerned, a new roof has been constructed on the easterly 52 feet. The plans call for the demolition of the west- erly 35 feet. The central 20 feet of the building has a flat roof and the cost of completing the wall to the level of the roof is approximately $216.00." The committee referred the above recommendations to the council on Sept. 9, 1963. As time has passed, it has left Hu- ron Canadian Fabricators no decision but to proceed with their building as planned for expansion. These improvements will certainly have to be added to the selling price of the build. ing. We do hope the Council will share their consideration and concern with .the residential taxpayer as they have with in- dustry in the past. It takes two to make a bar- gain: why not get together. R.
